How to add or edit contacts

Pinger syncs with your device contacts, when you first install the app. This happens when the app asks for permission to access your contacts list. 

To add a new contact or edit an existing one, follow the instructions below depending on where you want to add contacts from:

1. Adding Contacts from the dial pad
2. Adding Contacts from within a conversation 
3. Editing Contacts

To add contacts from the dial pad

1. When the full number has been entered, tap ADD TO CONTACTS seen below the number. 
2. Tap New Contact or Add to Existing.
   1. To add new: Enter the contact fields > tap Done to add the contact.
   2. To add to existing: Locate the TextFree contact and tap to save the additional number. 

To add contacts from within a conversation:

1. Tap on the address book icon on the top right 
2. Choose 'Create New Contact' or 'Add to existing Contact'
3. Make your edits, then click 'Done'

To edit contacts:

If you’d like to edit a contact from within the app, just follow the same steps of adding a new contact (seen above), then make the desired changes.

Please Note: Any changes you make to the contact on your device's address book will be reflected in the app as well.
